Some sort of Ichneumon wasp? We have quite a few of these around, I see them almost daily in the hot weather, but haven't managed to find one willing to hold still to get its picture taken until today, when it was miserably cold for June.

Subfamily Banchinae?
I absolutely love your work. You've submitted so many wonderful images!
It looks to me like your specimen belongs in the same group as this one:

Thank you -
I have to say though, whatever I add to this site, I get a lot more out of it than I put in. I've learned so much from the experts who share their knowledge here.

Sure looks like a match, so I'll move it there for now.

Thank you
It is a beauty, isn't it? Very kind of it to just hang out on that blade of grass for long enough so I could get a few shots.

Thank you Eric
It was nice to have one hold still for long enough to get a good look at it and really admire those incredible colors.
